So, DHGate are regurgitating their old standby saying to me again of "we have already refunded you, just go to your bank and quote this astronomically long bunch of numbers that mean nothing, then give them a secret code and you will get your refund".
The problem is of course is that this is all made up by them, there is no refund, never will be. The very first time that I dealt with DHGate, I was notified by them that they were refunding me because the item I wanted was out of stock, and they did refund me, right back onto my card. Money went back to me within a couple of days. Fast forward a few months later and they have decided not to refund money any more, they just keep it because, well, that's how they apparently operate now. So for them to keep your money, they give you a big long spiel which I noted above about numbers, codes etc. then their customer service (if you can even call it that), make real sure to never contact you, or you to never be able to contact them. Their ploy is to have you exhaust all avenues and jump through all their hoops in the hope that you will simply get tired of their make believe system and give up. In the case of my battle with them, one of their vendors MING62, is an out and out shyster. It is that vendor that failed to deliver, I continuously emailed and messaged MING62 for a refund but they refused and now blocked me from messaging them, so I went to DHGate as per their policy, but they are not there to help at all, they are a bigger badder version of MING62. I do feel sorry for the legit vendors who operate out of the DHGate site because ultimately they will end up riding along on the reputation of DHGate, which is one of an extremely ill reputed company. Once again people, I advise you not to deal with DHGate.

So an update. Amazingly (sarcasm) as soon as I posted my review on Sitejabber, I got a response from DHGate asking me for information so they could help me out. I sent them all of my information AGAIN, and they in turn sent me their tried and true comment of "We have already refunded you on January 21". This is all I ever get from them, they do not do anything else, they simply copy and paste this answer over and over. They either don't know how to fix things or they just don't care. I believe it is both! They will give you a series of 12 or so numbers that they say is your refund code, and you in turn are to take this to your bank or credit card issuer and quote to get the refund. Well, I done this and pretty much got laughed at, needless to say, these are simply numbers that they pull out of the air meaning nothing. It is yet another ruse that they use to not have to pay their customers.
DHGate truly love to get your money for nothing. I believe they are so desperate for money that they have intentionally set up this elaborate scam to get whatever they can from whoever they can. Please take my advice and do not purchase from them.

I purchased an item over $50.00 us funds. It was never shipped. I have been trying to get a refund from the seller or DH Gate, whoever would help me, and that was back in January, it is now April. No refund and now no communication from either mentioned. They insist that they have "great " customer service, they do not. It is extremely hard to even reach customer service and when you do, they reply via email and it is basically a form generated response. There are some good sellers on their site, but you really really have to watch who you are dealing with, because you will get ripped off by some of them, and be in the same position I am in, trying unsuccessfully to get compensation.

Tip for consumers:
Buyer beware
